Chapter 638: Scare Park

~8 min read 1,540 words

Facing Nightmare Shaye, a direct confrontation is actually not feared by anyone, because among Ange's forces, few possess the emotion of fear; when the time comes, they will throw tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of undead creatures at it and grind it to death.

Shaye, unable to feed on fear, is water without a source and will eventually perish.

What everyone fears most is that it will rush directly into the Prime Material Plane, hang itself from a tree, or simply slit its throat, spraying flesh and blood all over the plane, which would be troublesome.

However, just as they were discussing counter-strategies, Ange looked up and said: "Breed, eat Shaye, bugs."

Lord Nai Ge and Anthony's eyes lit up.

This is a very feasible method; bugs that devour flesh by the thousands are far more terrifying than Shaye in its youth; if the entire plane were covered in bugs that attacked Shaye the moment they saw it.

No matter how powerful an Old God is, without a chance to grow, it cannot become a threat.

However, to cultivate these bugs into weapons that eat Shaye, several of their habits must be changed; first, the bugs must not only eat Shaye.

This is a major problem; if the bugs are released and they devour not only Shaye but also all organic matter in the Prime Material Plane, the resulting harm would be far more catastrophic than that of Shaye itself.

However, this problem is easily solved; they pulled Hemel out, pointed at a piece of Shaye's flesh for it to eat, and after finishing, they made it howl twice, causing it to spit out a pile of black, bead-like bug eggs.

"Is it safe? Don't let it devour everyone before it gets to Shaye." Lord Nai Ge's concern was instinctive, but as soon as he finished speaking, he felt he was overthinking it; with two Bug Gods under Ange's control, if they couldn't control the bugs, the Prime Material Plane would have been devoured long ago.

"However, a bug species that only eats Shaye will definitely not be able to grow its population large; what if there aren't enough to eat it all then?" Anthony worried about another problem.

As an Old God, Nightmare Shaye would absolutely not be stingy, appearing a little here and a little there; if it flooded the entire plane at once, the bug population would be too small to handle it.

But the trait of eating only Shaye would limit their numbers; if the bug population lacks scale, it would be unknown whether they would eat Shaye or Shaye would eat them, as Shaye also eats meat.

Ange twisted Hemel around, pointed at the bug eggs, and said: "Eat, mosquitoes, flies..." After naming several types of pests, he added: "Do not eat eggs."

"Pfft—good heavens, using pests as food, this way you can raise a sufficient scale, but by not eating eggs, you prevent these pests from going extinct and disrupting the ecosystem; some flies and mosquitoes in their metamorphosis or Hatching Stage will always escape these bugs' predation, ensuring there is always food. How is your brain so sharp?" Lord Nai Ge admitted defeat, which was rare for him.

Ange tilted his head: "Planting things, I am a professional."

"Alright, alright, we know you're a professional, stop bragging, this isn't about planting things." Lord Nai Ge said with a bad temper.

Hearing this, Ange tilted his head again, looked intently at the bug eggs on the ground, and frowned in deep thought.

Lord Nai Ge's heart skipped a beat; seeing Ange's expression, he knew what mischief he was planning, so he quickly grabbed him, smiled awkwardly, and said: "You can't plant them, bug eggs can't be planted, alright, we know you're a professional, you are the most professional."

Ange wore an expression of deep contemplation, clearly not listening to Lord Nai Ge's words.

On Hemel's side, perhaps because Ange's request was too complex, it held its breath for a while before spitting out another pile of bug eggs.

As long as the true form does not enter the Prime Material Plane, entering is quite easy; Nightmare Shaye, at this moment, had transformed into a human, wearing a hat and a cloak, and stepped out of the teleportation array of Meishencheng.

"Eh?" Although it had drifted in the void for so long, it had never stopped receiving external information, having raised a host of intelligent beings itself.

【A veteran reader of ten years recommended this book-reading app to me, Wild Fruit Reading! It's truly damn useful; I rely on its read-aloud feature to pass the time while driving or before sleep; you can download it at. yeguoyuedu】

Therefore, civilization, society, and customs were not unfamiliar, yet the situation in Meishencheng still shocked it severely.

"Fitness? Accommodation? Beauty? Relaxation? Young man, come with me, big sister will take you to the most discounted shops." A loud voice rang in Nightmare Shaye's ears; turning its head, it saw a tall, muscular minotaur auntie.

This minotaur auntie was a bit too strong, standing over two meters tall, with broad shoulders and a thick waist, covered entirely in bulging muscles, clearly a minotaur raised on high-quality feed.

The content of her speech was even more confusing to Nightmare Shaye; what on earth was all this? It knew what accommodation was, but fitness? Was that about pulling carts as hard labor? Beauty? What was that?

Relaxation? Could it be that kind of relaxation where waitresses in leg-baring outfits in small taverns are dragged into dark rooms?

Nightmare Shaye was frowning when it suddenly felt a gaze shift onto it; turning to look, it saw a giant tree towering into the clouds; this giant tree was obviously not looking at it, but at the area, and shifted its gaze away upon seeing no movement.

Instead, several elves on the tree, holding magical bows, glanced at it a few more times.

Nightmare Shaye continued shifting its gaze and quickly spotted two tall half-blood Titans in a street corner, acting as racks, allowing those bear children to climb all over them, occasionally having to straighten their arms on command.

But Nightmare Shaye did not ignore the heavy weapons beside them.

A strong magical fluctuation; turning to look, a female mage carrying a giant staff was opening a teleportation gate.

Another mage painfully pulled out a magic crystal card, paid, and had to willingly give her a thumbs-up, a like, before diving into the teleportation gate.

Xi Lu Di, having made some extra money, satisfiedly flicked the magic crystal card, stuffed it into her pocket, turned around, noticed Nightmare Shaye looking at her, and quickly plastered on a smile: "Hello, do you need teleportation services? Ten thousand magic crystals per trip, accessible throughout the entire plane."

Nightmare Shaye quickly shook its head.

But Xi Lu Di had already walked over, handed over a card, and said: "If you need teleportation services, find me; if you spend here, you can mention my name for a two percent discount." Then she left very carefree.

Nightmare Shaye held the card in a daze, looking at the card, then at the minotaur auntie.

The minotaur auntie shrugged, and said in a muffled voice: "It's my lord Xi Lu Di's card, a two percent discount, it works; guest, do you still need services? Want to know about fitness? Accommodation is this way."

Nightmare Shaye shook its head in some panic; this Prime Material Plane was different from what it had imagined; it would observe first.

It left its true form in the void and entered the Prime Material Plane in this current form, so it had no combat power and could not reveal itself carelessly.

But to be honest, even its true form was not skilled in combat; previously, when attacking the body of the Snake of Misfortune, it was held back for so long by the mages led by Senate; just arriving here, it had already encountered several powerful beings no inferior to Senate.

Nightmare Shaye is an Old God that feeds on fear; only with fear does it have power.

Having rejected the minotaur auntie who was soliciting customers, Nightmare Shaye walked alone through the streets of Meishencheng; walking and walking, it found the place too dry and too clean; after finally finding a dark corner, it quickly pinched its finger, spilling a little blood onto the corner.

Sneaking into the Prime Material Plane quietly was precisely to spread nightmares, wasn't it?

Unfortunately, it had chosen the wrong place; Meishencheng is located in a desert, making it hard to find dark and damp places.

After turning several circles, it had spilled less than two liters of blood; just as it was considering whether to change cities, Nightmare Shaye's nose twitched: "There is the scent of fear..."

Following this scent, Nightmare Shaye walked all the way to a park area, where several young humans were slumped on the roadside, looking as if they had been terrified.

Nightmare Shaye sniffed, frowned, and murmured: "Their fear is impure."

The fear was impure because it was mixed with more excitement inside.

Nightmare Shaye looked up at the park entrance; the plaque at the gate bore the words—Scare Park.
